    The youngsters voted for the president in massive numbers. He has declared that social security, medicare and student loans are inviolable and that if there is a deficit problem it must be fixed by raising taxes.

    So who is going to pay those taxes? You guessed it.

    Congratulations kids.

    If you don’t know who the mark is, you are.

    or as the Sage of Baltimore wrote:

    Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.
